This module offers students an opportunity to engage in depth with issues in communication, media or culture studies that are the subject of current scholarly and popular interest. Conducted predominantly through student-led discussions and seminar sessions, it enables students to develop more fully their portfolio in the Research strand of the programme. The specific contents of the module will be selected yearly to match current open questions in the disciplinary context. They will provide a platform for research-led reflection on the state on the discipline, and on related contemporary issues of political, social and cultural significance. Students will engage with the readings through response papers and dialogue, as well as mutually assessing their seminar presentations.
